The development of new antifreeze mixtures containing non-amine-type corrosion inhibitors, which considers environmental protection, has become a major issue. In this study, four non-amine-type corrosion inhibitors were synthesized and used to produce five kinds of new antifreeze for automobiles to evaluate the rate of copper corrosion. The effects were evaluated by the weight change, surface observation, roughness measurement, and measurement of copper elution in the solution. The amount of copper eluted measured by ICP from Sample 4 was small, and the elution rate was prolonged. Sample 4 showed the best anti-corrosion performance owing to a corrosion suppression effect by passivating copper because the metal surface was smooth after the test, and the corrosion product layer was formed evenly on the surface as small local corrosion was observed. The major corrosion inhibitor added to Sample 4 was 1-aminomethyl(N',N'-di(2-hydroxyethyl)benzotrazole, which contained a certain amount in Sample 5 to show relatively high local corrosion but passivation in progress. Therefore, among the four corrosion inhibitors, 1-aminomethyl(N',N'-di(2-hydroxyethyl)benzotrazole had the highest corrosion inhibitory effect. This corrosion inhibitor prevents corrosion by promoting the passivation of copper on the antifreeze.

The grain boundary etching method as a technique for assessing degradation of structural materials used at elevated temperature has received much attention since it is simple, inexpensive and easy to apply to real plant components. In this study, the technique is applied to some aged petroleum and chemical plant components such as reactors and drums. As a degradation parameter, intersection number ratio ($N_i/N_o$), is employed. The intersection number ratio ($N_i/N_o$) is defined as the ratio of intersection number ($N_i$) obtained from 5-minute picric acid etched surface to the number ($N_o$) obtained from Nital etched surface. In order to study degradation level, several relationships were measured such as the correlation between shift in ductile brittle transition temperature, $({\Delta}DBTT)_{sp}$ and intersection number ratio, ($N_i/N_o$) and the correlation between the measured ($N_i/N_o$) values and Larson-Miller Parameter values.

Steel corrosion in concrete is a main cause of deterioration and early failure of concrete structures. A novel integration of electromagnetic heat induction and infrared (IR) thermography is proposed for nondestructive detection of steel corrosion in concrete, by taking advantage of the difference in thermal characteristics of corroded and non-corroded steel. This paper focuses on experimental investigation of the concept. An inductive heater is developed to remotely heat the embedded steel from concrete surface, which is integrated with an IR camera. Concrete samples with different cover depths are prepared. Each sample is embedded with a single rebar in the middle, resulting an identical cover depth from the front and the back surfaces, which enable heat induction from one surface and IR imaging from the other simultaneously. The impressed current (IC) method is adopted to induce accelerated corrosion on the rebar. IR video images are recorded during the entire heating and cooling periods. The test results demonstrate a clear difference in thermal characteristics between corroded and non-corroded samples. The corroded sample shows higher rates of heating and cooling than those of the non-corroded sample. This study demonstrates a potential for nondestructive detection of rebar corrosion in concrete.

The present study assesses the chloride threshold level for corrosion of steel in concrete by examining the properties of four different binders used for blended concrete in terms of chloride binding, buffering of cement matrix to a pH fall and the corrosion behaviour. As binders, ordinary Portland cement (OPC), 30% pulverised fuel ash (PFA), 60% ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) and 10% silica fume (SF) were used in a concrete mix. Testing for chloride binding was carried out using the water extraction method, the buffering of cement matrix was assessed by measuring the resistance to an artificial acidification of nitric acid, and the corrosion rate of steel in mortar with chlorides in cast was measured at 28 days using an anodic polarisation technique. Results show that the chloride binding capacity was much affected by $C_{3}A$ content and physical adsorption, and its order was 60% GGBS>30% PFA>OPC>10% SF. The buffering of cement matrix to a pH fall was varied with binder type and given values of the pH. From the result of corrosion test, it was found that the chloride threshold ranged 1.03, 0.65, 0.45 and 0.98% by weight of cement for OPC, 30% PFA, 60% GGBS and 10% SF respectively, assuming that corrosion starts at the corrosion rate of $0.1-0.2{\mu}A/cm^{2}$. The mole ratio of [$Cl^{-}$]:[$H^{+}$], as a new presentation of the chloride threshold, indicated the value of 0.008-0.009, irrespective of binder, which would be indicative of the inhibitive characteristic of binder.

The atmospheric corrosion rate were measured in Asan area for four years according to ISO 9224. The tested metals chosen as the most frequently used in industry, aluminum were copper, carbon steel, weathgering steel, and galvanized steel. The assessed corrosivity categories was 3 in average. The corrosivity categories of asan area was higher than typical rural area and even urban area, whereas it slightly lower than marine area. The results were discussed, specially as the regional climatic characteristics.

최근 반도체 및 디스플레이 사업의 급속한 발전으로 인해 반도체 공정은 초미세선폭화, 대면적화 되면서 오염입자를 제어하는 것이 이슈가 되고 있다. 반도체 및 디스플레이의 제조공정 중 챔버 내 진공부품은 진공상태에서 플라즈마에 의해 물리적인 데미지와 화학적으로 매우 활성이 높은 라디칼(Radical)반응에 의한 부식이 진행된다. 이러한 공정영향에 의해 챔버 내 부품들은 부식이 되고 공정 중에 오염입자가 발생하게 되어 반도체 및 디스플레이의 수율저하에 큰 영향을 미치고 부품교체 비용 또한 많이 들고 있다. 본 연구에서는 진공부품의 내전압측정방법을 이용하여 진공부품의 피막특성을 평가하는 연구방법으로서 내전압 지그(Zig)를 표준화하여 제작하였고, 재현성있는 데이터로 피막특성을 정량적으로 측정하는 방법을 연구 하였다. 식각공정 중에 발생하는 부식특성에 관해서는 화학부식와 플라즈마부식 열충격 등 각각 독립적으로 부식환경에 노출시켰으며, 진공부품의 손상 전 후의 내전압 특성변화를 이용하였다. 또한, CCP (Capacitativly Coupled Plasma)형의 RF magnetic sputter을 설계 제작하였고 진공부품에 고밀도 플라즈마를 발생시켜 플라즈마데미지에 의해 발생한 오염입자를 실시간으로 monitoring하여, 정량적으로 측정된 내전압특성결과를 비교 검증하였다.

Steel reinforcement buried in concrete structure in submerged zone does not easily become corroded due to lack of dissolved oxygen. For that reason, accelerated corrosion test in submerged state is performed with an electrochemical method, which is not suitable for actual corrosion mechanism and makes it difficult to find relevance with long-term behavior. In this study, accelerated corrosion test was performed with the temperature and chloride concentration as main variables in order to establish a method for accelerated corrosion test in submerged zone. Corrosion was determined by the result of reinforcement corrosion monitoring based on galvanic potential measurement and half-cell potential method. The accelerated corrosion test result showed that temperature had the most dominant influence. To determine the chloride content, chloride concentration by depth in the test sample was measured. With the same conditions, chloride penetration interpretation was performed by DuCOM, a FEM durability interpretation program. Also, a test was performed to measure dissolved oxygen according to soaking conditions of artificial seawater, which was used for verifying the validity of the accelerated corrosion test result.
